why a heavy object does not fall faster

Open in App

Solution

Gravitational pull or force on the object depends upon their mass. Heavier the object more will be the gravitational pull and light weight objects experience small gravitational pull. As,
F=mg
The gravitational pull depends upon the acceleration due to gravity ‘g’ which is a constant value this is the reason whatever
may be the mass of the object they fall with the same speed as the acceleration is same work on them.

Gravitational force acts on all objects in proportion to their masses. Why then, a heavy object does not fall faster than a light object?
